General description

Zincacrylate is a compound that belongs to the class of acrylate polymers, whichare known for their versatile applications in various fields, including biomedicine.In the biomedical field, zinc acrylate is primarily recognized for its use indental materials, drug delivery systems, and tissue engineering. In dental applications, zinc acrylate is often used in dental adhesives and restorative materials dueto its excellent bonding properties and biocompatibility.

Application

Zinc acrylate can be used as a:
  • A monomer in the development of zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films via photopolymerization reaction. ZnO thin films exhibit favorable characteristics for use in optoelectronic devices, such as sensors, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and photovoltaic cells. The incorporation of zinc acrylate allows for tunable properties, making these films versatile for various applications in the field of electronics and photonics.
  • A key component in the formulation of gelatin/poly(zinc acrylate) hydrogel stent. Zinc acrylate incorporated into the gelatin-based hydrogel to enhance its mechanical properties contributing to its performance and suitability for use in medical applications.
  • A monomer used in the synthesis of fluorescent resins through the incorporation of coumarin acid structures. The resultant fluorescent zinc acrylate resins exhibit improved antifouling properties, which are crucial for applications in marine environments.
  • A monomer in the development of a poly zinc acrylate (PZA) coating that enhances the performance and stability of zinc anodes in aqueous Zn metal batteries, contributing to their high reversibility and longevity.

Comb-shaped glycopolymer/peptide bioconjugates are constructed by grafting reduced glutathione (GSH) onto acrylate-functional block glycocopolymers via thiol-ene click chemistry. In aqueous solution, the glycopolymer/GSH bioconjugate self-assembles to sugar-installed spherical micelles. The size of micelles decreases with increasing pH, demonstrating pH-responsive character.
